  Congrats!! That is pretty cool!!
  I don't think I have anything nice enough. I have a couple of 67s, though. Think these are book-worthy?
  
  
  
  The color on this one is not spectacular, but it is much nicer than this crappy scan shows.
  Actually, I think it's a Heritage pic.

  That '57 and '58 look pretty sharp, but can definitely use a photo reshoot - I'm sure they would 10 times better, and are nice in hand.
  
  Skyman, I did send them an email today asking about the book status and they said their deadline to get it all together for the book was April 1st. My coin is being shipped back too. My guess is that the book will come out maybe fall this year, can't wait!

  I'm really looking forward to it also.
  I did not submit any Franklins of my own but should have just for the novelty.

  I did a writeup for a variety section in his book and sent about a dozen variety coins in for photography. I think he still needs the big '61 DDR to photograph if anyone has one they'd like to volunteer.

  Obv shot on Elmers coin is a bit out of focus?
  
  The coin looks like it would be at home in an MS66 holder...
